The Huaterdon Republican of last
week states that it had an offer to pub
fish the advertisement of the Tor ilita
Mines, "without any marks of an adver-
tisement, " to be paid for in stock, which
it declined. 1t calls the advertisement
"humbug" and insinuates that it is a
swindle. Further, it airs its own upright.
ness in refusing to "humbug' its patrons
and informs its readers that THE RECORD
has been wicked enough to do so. 1t is
evident that the Republican was unwill-
ing to ''humbug" its readers, on the
terms offered. Had it had cash proffcred
it, as was the case with us, we are afraid
that its goodness would have still re-
manned unhonored and unsung-in its
columns, at least.
In our intercourse of fifteen years
or more, this is the first time that the Re.
publican has offered us an insult. We do
not knowingly advertise that which will
swindle our readers Neither has the
Republican any evidence that the Torlilita
Mines are not a legitimate enterprise. Mr..
Joseph II. Reall, the President, is man
known throughout the Union as President
of the American Agricultural and Dairy
Association, and as the leader in getting
through Congress the famous olcomar
gaiine bill. Mr. Reall's honesty and up
rightness have never been questioned so
far as we have heard. Elk. Gov. Rodman
M. Price, of this State, is also one of the
officers. The advertisement was not pub.
lished in this paper as reading matter
Gas the Republican charges), as can readi
ly be seen by reference to IL. Its head
ings were displayed in advertising type
and the body of the matter set In fine
type such as is used In our advertise
ments, and it appeared among tho adver-
tisements. The same advertisement has
already appeared in large number of the
leading papers in this country. Allthese
have failed to have the fine moral insight
possessed by the Republican.
The "Tortiita Mines may never pay
its stockholders for their investment. All
mining stocks (of undeveloped mines,
particularly are necessarily uncertain,
aud any one who invests knows this.
There are chances of big profits and of
total losses. The Comstock mines have
paid several thousand dollars for every
hundred invested, while others have been
dead loss on the Investment. This is
true of oil wells, gas wells and all kinds
of investments of like kind. So far as
the Tortilita Mines are concerned, the
prospects are exceedingly favorable for
large returns, If the statements of such
reputable papers as the New York Star,
Boston Globe and Hartford Post, are to BIO
believed.

dates for Sheriff, besides great many

as the easiest way to settle the question,
that they be put on the race track at the

The fact that American workmen who
60 to Europe for employment fare worse
than they do at home is sufficient re-
buke to those who would disturb the ex-
isting orders of things in this country.
Times are often dull here, but even when
they are the worse, they are much better
than at any time in any European ma
on.-zTenton Daily Emporium.
The Emporium is correct. People who
want to disturb the present tariff for the
purpose of ''cheapening things" really
are working for the cheapening of wages,
whether they are conscious of it or not.

The Anarchists of Chicago and some
other places are talking pretty loudly
and in fierce and violent strains about the
decision OF the Illinois Supreme Court.
They threaten vengence upon all who
prosecuted the murdercrs, upon the
judges, upon the police, upon American
governments and institutions. This kind
Of talk is simply nails in the cofilus Of the
condemned, and will convince the Ameri-
can people more thoroughly than ever of
their doom.

Threw Up an Eel.
Buffalo, N. Y, Special.

Henry Steiner, a wood carver,
tlnrty-one years old, who lives on
Lemon street, vomlted up an eel,
which weighed nineteen ounces and
was sixteen inches long. 1t was OF a
greenish color and had q large sucker
mouth. but had no eyes. 1t was coat
ed with milky film, and wrigeled
vigorously in a pail OF water for four
hours, when it died. Last December
the water pipes in Steiner's house
frOZe. and for some days the family
used water from the fire hydrant in
front OF the house. One night in the
dark Steiner drank down something
that seemed to him to be as large as a
hazienut. Six weeks atterward he was
taken with terrible pains in his
stomach. and WAS treated in turn for
indigestion, neuralgia of the heart,
gastritis and tapeworm. The pain
became SO bad that he took large
doses OF morphine. This did him no
permanent good, until a few days ago
he took q large emetic, but without
effect. He told the doctor he was 60
ing to try getting drunk. He had
been temperate man, and, having
provided himself with q quart OF
whisky. he proceeded to load up.
After taking halfthe liquor he went to
sleep, and awoke terribly sick, when
tie threw up the eel. When shown the
reptile he nearly tainted. He is doing
we'll, and no fears are entertained of
his ultimate complete reco very.

Cc;opco NfcrIb1,,

"About the Wedding-ring," in Popular
Science Monthly.
OF all the ornaments with which
vanity, superstition and affection
have decorated the human form, few
have more curious bits of history
than the fineer-ring. From the ear
lest times the ring has been a favorite
ornament. And the reasons for this
general preference shown for it over
other articles Of jewelry are numerous
and cogent. Ornaments whose place
is on some portion OF the apparel, or
in the hair, must be laid aside with
the clothing or headdress; are thus
easily lost and often not at once
missed. Pins, brooches, buckles,
clasps, buttons, all sooner or later be-
come detective in some part, and are
liable to escape from an owner uncon-
scious OF the defect in the mechan.
ism. The links of q necklace in time
become worn, and the article is
taken off to be mended; the
spring or other fastening of a bracelet
is easily broken, and the bracelet
vanishes. With regard to ornaments
fastened to parts OF the savage body,
muti!ation is necessary, the ear must
be bored, the nose be pierced, the
cheeks or lips slit, and, even after these
surgical operations are completed, the
articles used for adornment are gener-
ally inconvenient, and sometimes, by
their weight or construction, are ex-
tremely painful.
In striking contrast with decora.
lions worn on the clothing, in the HAIR.
around the neck and arm, or pendent
from the ears, lips and nose. is the
lingering, the model of convenience.
1t is seldom lost, for it need not be
taken off; requlrers no preparatory
mutilation OF the body. is not pain
full, is always in view, a perpetual re-
minder, either OF the giver. or of the
purpose for which it is worn.
The popularity OF the ring must,
therefore, be in large measure due to
it's convenience, and that this good
quality was early learned may be in.
ferred from the Hebrew tradition,
which attributes the invention of this
ornament to Tubal- Cain the ':instruct.

THE FIRE OF HOME,

hear them tell of far. off climes,

On canvas, rare and old.

But, ali. how can I roam?

And light the fire of home.
Sometimes hear OF noble deeds,
OF words that move mankind;
OF willing hands that to other lands
Bring light to the poor and blind;
/ dare not preach. l cannot write,
l fear to cross the foam:
Who, if I 90, will spin and sew,
And light the fire OF home?

From the fields with my girl and boy,
His loving kiss brings with it bliss
That hath no base alloy.
